Parasite

Part 14

The world came back to normal. It is the first time that he can visit Mrs Kimberley and Scot after long days of being a security guard and being under the severe eye of Mr Hoven teaching. As Toby travel on a bus a young man with a snake that whole body look to be made as a twisted vine. Its eyes a solid green, the head has a diamonds surrounded by red with flecks of yellow. He sat just two rows down. With his feet up on the seat Toby can feel the staring.

Light up signs on top of the roof move left to right in a complete circuit in blue reading St Marry hospital. The bus comes to a stop, the building may not be tall it is wide with windows with that can be freely open. The door side open to a floor of polish concrete. There robots of the newest model behind a glass counter. Chairs in plastic covering, place around tables and some in rows. Lights that give off vitamin D and the smell of Eclytups fill the room. There are young children playing with parents sitting at tables with cups of tea. The children being distracted by cubby monkey with flat faces with gums and no teeth.

Toby strides to the reception desk. The robot with its' square face "How may we help you."

Giving a grin "I am here to meet Mrs Kimberly now and Scot Samuel later."

The robot nods his head. "Follow the colour orange until you come to a building with orange doors, Mrs Kimberly is on the second floor, room 204."

"Thanks" respond Toby.

The man with the snake step up to reception desk, the spines on Toby lift centimetre up. With quick strides Toby went through the door mark with orange taking him down the hall way were people are behind glass windows looking through microscope. He follows down and out to an open green grass as some of the patients in a group doing yoga; others walking. Each of them with a flying robot above their heads; two patients walk by with a conversation for all to hear.

"Oh Jenna my daughter came to visit with her new husband..." only a unique sound of a gossiper.

"Is that her eighth or ninth husband?" the other asks with weariness.

Toby pauses in his step. A quick glance catching the gossiper going in a deep analyse of her daughter life. The man with the snake came into view. In a back pocket a verr verr from the mobile. The man falters, slowing down then pick up walking past. Toby felt unease as he glances between the mobile and the snake. A text message from D informing that he is already here. With tip, tip Toby send back. Passing doors in dark blue with golden numbers plates in the centre. Small Blue bells lining path the pathways change too orange Impatience the next building with orange doors. Taking stairs up to a balcony with a small cactus garden flowering pink and white the size of buttons. Toby Enters to a wide hallway. Art frame down the hallway. Coming to a door with the numeral two, zero and four; knocking on the door. It opens showing D, Tadashi is sitting in a chair beside the bed Mrs Kimberly is lying on. Lightly stepping into the room with floor divided between lineal and carpet. A small bench holding cups for tea, coffee and a kettle for hot water.

"Hey how are feeling?" Toby talks whisper.

Mrs Kimberly colours lighten over her exoskeleton her spines extending out, with joyful tones "Toby how have you been? I have been all right, just sleep walk."

Giving a grin "All have been going really good; I got a job as a security guard for Karen and Clair Co."

The group spark up cheers from congratulations to well done. Karen gives a bigger smile than Toby "So what"-.

She stop fling her short legs out of bed. She pulls the door so hard it slams into the wall. Her other hand grabbing the snake and yanking out of the man's hand. The snake thrashes against her body. The spines the shapes spade extended out like wipes. They rattle together. The snake bites with its fangs out as milky poison drops. Mrs Kimberly put the neck of the snake in her jaws, biting down in warning. The man reacts, throwing a punch. Toby throws a punch to the jaw. If the world slow down; Mrs Kimberly spines enfold around the man fist. Toby lands the blow to the jaw. He crumples to the floor.
